It Lets You Live Louder

It's the wireless speaker that lets you live louder. The Flip rechargeable Bluetooth-enabled loudspeaker features true JBL sound and a built-in microphone. It lets you wirelessly connect to smartphones, tablets, laptops, and more. Use its built-in microphone for hands-free calls, Skype, and FaceTime. Enjoy great JBL sound from dual drivers and DSP.

"It Does Stand Tall"

"I thought it was well designed, and I appreciated that JBL included a neoprene carrying case," notes a CNET.com review for December 21, 2012. "It does stand tall and distinguishes itself enough to make it easily recommendable."

The Flip was honored with a Red Dot award, which is the prize for high design quality. The international jury only awards this sought-after seal of quality to projects that set themselves apart significantly from comparable projects, thanks to their excellent design.

The JBL Flip with Bluetooth capability is an ideal wireless stereo system for smartphones and tablets. With two 1-5/8" drivers and a built-in bass port, it delivers full-range JBL sound with exceptional bass – all in a portable package.

The JBL Flip offers up to five hours of playback time from its built-in Li-ion rechargeable battery and connects wirelessly to any Bluetooth-equipped device. With performance that comparably priced products can’t match, the JBL Flip is the ultimate wireless portable stereo speaker for any environment.

Bluetooth Technology

The JBL Charge portable speaker streams audio wirelessly from any Bluetooth-equipped device, making JBL sound available for a wide range of portable devices, including tablets.

Digital Signal Processing

JBL speakers – even small ones – aren’t misers when it comes to delivering great sound. The JBL Flip employs digital signal processing to generate room-filling audio with great bass from a compact speaker.

Built-In Microphone and Call-Answer Button

Not all of the sounds from the JBL Flip come from your music. There’s a microphone and a call-answer button so you can answer phone calls from the speaker.

Five-hour, Li-ion Rechargeable Battery

The Flip has a built-in Li-ion rechargeable battery that provides up to five hours of playback time. You can easily recharge the battery using the adapter, which saves you battery hassles and money. An LED lets you know when its built-in battery needs to be recharged as well as when the speaker is in the Bluetooth listening or pairing mode.

Versatile, Portable Design

The Flip plays from either a vertical or horizontal position, so you can use it in a variety of locations. And it fits easily into a backpack, so you can take it from one place to the next.

The Flip was honored with a Red Dot award, which is the prize for high design quality. The international jury only awards this sought-after seal of quality to projects that set themselves apart significantly from comparable projects, thanks to their excellent design.

"I thought it was well designed, and I appreciated that JBL included a neoprene carrying case, which offers decent protection. Few of these types of speakers sound fantastic – and the Flip doesn't either ¬– but it sounds as good as anything at this price point, and in some cases, slightly better."

"In the end, while the Flip doesn't necessarily stand head and shoulders above the rest of its competitors, it does stand tall and distinguishes itself enough to make it easily recommendable."
